From the Institution

William Jewell College's commitment to cultivating critical thinkers in pursuit of meaningful lives is woven into the living and learning community and is the basis of the Critical Thought and Inquiry Core Curriculum and all academic programs, including nursing, civil engineering, data science, music and nonprofit leadership. The outcomes of this approach are evident through the 99.1 percent of Jewell students who are employed or in graduate school within six months of graduation. They are accepted to top graduate programs and have received competitive grants and scholarships including Fulbright, Goldwater, Rhodes, Truman, National Institutes of Health, National Science Foundation and Teach for America. Among Jewell's distinctive programs are the Oxbridge Honors Program, which combines the British tutorial style of learning with a year of study at Oxford, Journey Grants and the Pryor Leadership Program. A national award-winning Concert Choir and Debate Team, the Harriman- Jewell performing arts series and the Honors Institute in Critical Thinking demonstrate the depth of opportunities available to students. William Jewell is consistently ranked among America's best colleges by U.S. News & World Report, Money, The Princeton Review, Forbes, Washington Monthly, Kiplinger's Personal Finance and Wall Street Journal/Times Higher Education.
